Empathy and when i work with some one who need a care giver..And when a person fine there self in need of care. I have the Personality the Experience the Training the Reliability Honesty and Dignity. I been a caregiver over 30 years , I enjoy what i do I love proving good home care services daily.

I spent 11 years in the military in which I was honorably discharged at the end of 2012. I completed and received an associate degree in art while serving. I continued my education while being unemployed from the time I was released from the military until April of 2013 and earned a bachelor degree in psychology. A week later I began practical nursing school and graduated top of my class a year later and was rewarded the leadership award. I passed my state board and earned my Practical Nursing license with an IV certification. I have since worked as an admission nurse, hospice nurse, agency nurse, floor nurse, managed a long term care facility, and was a day shift manager as well as a day shift unit supervisor. I recently completed my associate's degree in science in nursing and am waiting to sit for boards for my registered nursing license. I am looking to slowly transition from the facility setting into private duty helping people in their home setting.

I am a fun outgoing caregiver who strongly believes in aging with grace and dignity, and on your own term. Maintaining independence is key to this. Let me help keep you in your home. I have been a LPN for 6 years and was a CNA for 20 years prior to becoming a nurse. I have the experience necessary to care for your loved one.

I enjoy caring for people I've been a CNA for 12 years now. I care for my hearing impaired brother,and help him with his 3 small children. My grandma worked in the hospital helping people. So I always wanted to be like her and care for people. All the different people i get to take care of and help make there life easier. Getting my level 1 Med Aide license.

I am one of the most easy going, whole hearted, loving people you will meet. I take full pride in all of my work with my patients/clients, and I have been told by everyone I have cared for that it is my calling. That I have a servants heart. I started caregiving at the age of 19, there was something about it that completely drew me in and once I started there was no stopping because I love it so much. The best things about being a caregiver to me are the smile that lights up the room when I walk in, the happy tears when I doll up a lady after a good shower and make her feel beautiful when she hasn't felt that in a while, and being a part of so many wonderful families that you just cherish those memories for the rest of your life. It's truly a blessing. A personal achievement that I am proud of would be being named Employee of the Year and Month for taking on an entire census of patients by myself when both of my co workers had resigned. It was tough, but I got it done and my whole team through a celebration for me. Being a caregiver has taught me so many wonderful things in life, and I couldn't be more grateful.

I have over 15 years experience in senior caregiving. My duties have included bathing, physical therapy, doctor appointments, daily meals, housekeeping, going on outings, and running errands. I am experienced with hospice care, medication management, Hoyer lifts, dementia and Alzheimer's. I love doing what I do because I love the interaction with the client and giving the family the piece of mind that I am taking care of their loved ones as if they were my own mom or dad.

I have dedicated the last 13 yrs of my life caring for others. I am what you would consider an old soul. My career began in a nursing home in the laundry department. After getting to know all the residents (who not only became my friends but my family) I came to the realisation that 95% of them all wanted the same thing. To be/go home. The care they received in those facilities truly hurt me. I decided right then that I was going to go back to school. I have made it my lifes mission to keep as many people as possible out of those facilities and give not only dignity but true care. I have managed to stay word of mouth for the last 8yrs, which that in itself is impressive. I've made many friends and lost many friends as well. I still stay in contact with my clients family members as it makes me feel close to the person we lost. In 2015 and 2016 I was named and nominated the most exceptional caregiver award. I have several certifications including obtaining an Alzheimer's certification (not yet offered in Mo) this is not a job to me this is my life. It's what I'm supposed to be doing.

I provide in home senior assistant to help them stay in the home while maintaining a safe, health, and happy life. I have extensive training in dementia and Alzheimer's and 10 years experience.

I became a caregiver because I enjoy helping and caring for others. To me it is an honor to provide care to the elderly. I have 37 years experience in geriatric and Alzheimer's/ Dementia care

I have taken care of many family members throughout my lifetime with situations including hospice and post-orthopedic surgery. I realized that the compassion and empathy I was able to give others was a gift, what better way to use it than to take care of those who cannot take care of themselves. I have won awards for customer service and for being an exceptional preceptor at the current healthcare facility I work at. At the end of the day, no matter how difficult it was I am happy because I was able to help someone.
